ACME Comic Con is a bi-annual fan convention held at the Scottish Events Campus in Glasgow, Scotland. It is organised by Attic Convention and Media Events.
History
Before 2020 a Comic Convention called MCM Scotland (an offshoot of MCM London) was held at the SEC since 2013. Due to the Covid 19 Pandemic and a restructuring of MCM after a buyout from Reedpop, MCM scaled back their UK conventions to just MCM London and MCM Birmingham. ACME (who organised Rai Con for several years prior) announced they would be taking over hosting a comic con event at the SEC with two events, one in March and one in September.[1]
ACME Comic Con hosted its first Convention in Halls 1 & 2 of the Scottish Events Campus on the 5th and 6th of March 2022, it then hosted its second event in Hall 4 on the 24th and 25th of September 2022[2]
